[QUOTE="ZoidMeister, post: 4909343, member: 114169"]Gents, I'm generally impressed with the details that mint engravers of old have put into some of the coinage and tokens around the world. However today I received a purchase that blows the best of the best out of the water. The photos to follow were taken by my cheap cellphone. No post processing done on the images. I will let the photos speak for themselves. What's amazing is that this piece was made in 1868. What's even more amazing is the size of this piece. I know a few of you may have seen this design before, but there are probably many who haven't. Enjoy. [B]Click the images to enlarge [/B]to geta better appreciation of the details . . .
